Like many other baseball fans, I hope to someday visit all 30 Major League Baseball stadiums. Although I have only visited about half of them stadiums, there are a few that astonished me. I believe that all baseball fans should visit them at some point in their lives. Also, there are many stadiums I hope to visit soon so I can cross them off my bucket list. Here is a list of the 6 major league ballparks that I believe every baseball fan should see during their lifetime.

1. Wrigley Field

Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs, is iconic to say the least. There’s a reason the Cubs have stayed in Wrigley Field for over 100 years. Being baseball's second-oldest stadium, Wrigley offers cozy seating, a fun surrounding neighborhood, and its beautiful trademark ivy on the outfield wall. Though there have been renovations, Wrigley has an old-timey feel that cannot be beat.


2. Fenway Park

If you are a baseball history buff, Fenway Park is the stadium for you to visit. This is probably one of the only places, if not the only place, where spending $100 on an obstructed-view seat is well worth it. Better an obstructed view than no view, right? The atmosphere at Fenway is tough to beat. Sure, it may have its quirks, but nothing beats the Green Monster!


3. AT&T Park

Beginning with the 2000 baseball season, the Giants moved into AT&T Park from Candlestick Park. It’s another stadium with a breathtaking view of the Bay and McCovey Cove. AT&T Park is known for its atmosphere and delectable dishes such as the famous Cha Cha Bowl.


4. PNC Park

In my opinion, PNC Park has the best view out of every MLB stadium. The Pittsburgh skyline is basically at the top of the stadium, providing an amazing view to watch a good game. Since the Pirates are often a good team, and there is amazing food at the ballpark such as the "Cracker Jack and Mac Dog," the atmosphere of a ballgame PNC Park is unbeatable.


5. Dodgers Stadium

Dodger's Stadium provides the perfect blend of traditional and modern entities of baseball stadiums. The Dodgers may not have the most reliable, or passionate fanbase but they do have things like the Dodger Dog, and a beautiful view to enjoy!


6. Busch Stadium

Finally, having the most kin and passionate fans in baseball, Busch Stadium never fails to disappoint. With a view of beautiful St. Louis and The Gateway Arch in St Louis, there is nothing better than a day out at this St. Louis Ballpark. Surrounded by Baseball VIllage, you could never run out of things to do!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
